Using Your Device as a Wireless Modem

Dial-up networking (DUN) is the feature that converts the phone on your Centro device into a modem so that you can access the Internet from your computer. You can set up DUN in one of two ways:

If you have signed up on a Sprint Power Vision with Phone as Modem plan, you can use the Sprint Connection Manager software on your computer and connect your Centro device to your computer using the USB sync cable; see “Using Your Device’s Phone as a Modem” on page 110 for information.

If your computer is enabled with Bluetooth wireless technology, you can set up your Centro device as a wireless modem using the built-in Bluetooth technology.

This section describes the process of setting up your device as a wireless modem using the built-in Bluetooth technology.
